At Fundacion Entrepreneur, we work every day to "be the social actor that leads Learning by Playing in Latin America". "We seek to develop the competencies in our children and young people, that will become the best version of themselves and develop in the 21st century" Eight years ago there were three troublesome problems that were in our heads: What would happen if all people learned to undertake and be an entrepreneur?, What would happen if we were all financially literate, balancing our well-being and money?, What if we had fewer social myths and a mayor sense of citizenship and belonging? Common problems, which are in everyone's life, but which are not all carrying burden. Thus, in 2012, the chilean company Momento Cero (Mo.0), who has spent 15 years making learning and innovating always entertaining, through the creation of various tools to carry out the Learning by Playing methodology, saw the need to generate social impact initiatives, thus giving rise to our Entrepreneur Foundation, an independent, non-profit organization. We felt in love with the challenges linked to this specific problems, because we believe they are the individual mobilizing motors of freedom and necessary to create, finance and implement dreams and projects that are a contribution to the common good. How do we put this into practice? We develop, implement and evaluate school programs that promote the use of educational board games in the classroom, focusing on students between 12 and 18 years old. We address relevant topics for current challenges: entrepreneurial talent, financial literacy, social sense and citizenship. Along with this, we co-developed the book "Playful mindset: to create, educate, undertake and innovate", where we share our know-how. Why Learn by Playing? Because if there are emotions, there is learning. And if that learning has an educational intention to provide tools to our young people, even better! We know that the Learning by Playing methodology generates emotions, fosters self-confidence, develops divergent thinking and reduces stress, which increases learning, thus developing in children and young people the skills that will allow them to become the best version of themselves in this century. We know that our challenge is not easy and we have a long way to go, but we are committed to enhancing the talent of each person, contributing to the formation of integral human beings, according to the challenges of the 21st century.

DUH is an independent and non-profit environmental and consumer protection organization. We decisively drive social transformation for people, nature, the environment and the climate in Germany and the EU. We are ambitious and solution-oriented. We fight for what is best possible and help define red lines behind which we cannot fall in the interest of the environment and people. We do not demand the impossible, but are never satisfied with sham solutions or unsustainable compromises. We build networks. We seek dialogue and broad cooperation with actors from civil society, science, business and politics who, like us, are seriously interested in real solutions and are willing to move forward - first and foremost with our partners in the environmental movement. We are ready for unconventional alliances - but always on the premise that this will enable the transformation to succeed faster and better. We are persistent. We stay on issues until we have pushed through a real solution. We don't let powerful opponents intimidate us or distract us from our goal. We rely on information and education, on cooperation with actors willing to compromise, and on participation in political processes. Where necessary, we do not hesitate to confront others in order to enforce existing laws and to achieve social, legal or political changes through public or legal pressure. Our work is always transparent and fact-based. We develop the greatest possible expertise in the topics we work on and contribute to the factual basis through our own surveys and data analyses. We always translate the data into social, political or legal concrete and clear demands for ambitious, feasible solutions. We act with commitment, quickly and constantly evolve. This applies to us as an organization as well as to our substantive work. We develop new topics on the urgent problems of our time and on the basis of our existing strengths.
